Actually, in my country, a cemeterial plot of land, especially in a huge city is most valuable and of course a full-length stone or metal statue above of it is valuable too, but the second is optional. A stone statue is better because it will not be stolen to be delivered to a metal collection point.
However, the mountain crypts of Skyrim are sheer perfection, they are the standard of burial for members of the Nordic race.

>>Casket $6500
In my country, anyone can buy a such premium-quality coffin (see the picture) for $1824. and this price is higher than the market average. There are cheaper options, and there are more expensive options.

You can cremate yourself, and someone will take your ashes to a river and let them flow down the river. Although, it's a matter of taste. Some people like to lie in the cemetery.

You know, funeral tourism is gaining popularity in this epoch. There is a belief that the soul of a buried person does not go far from burial, and then receives a new birth when a child is conceived by a new father and a new mother. Therefore, if you are sad with your state or country, well, if you are not successful in them, then you can bury your body in another country, and thus increase the likelihood of your birth in this other country.

I'm going to get cremated. Cemeteries are wasteful.

I'd like to be burned and turned into a knife blade or a precious stone set in a nice amulet. Rotting in the ground is depressing. I don't want my family feeling obligated to visit me. They can let me gather dust in a jewellery box then pawn me when my name's no longer spoken. I get to help descendants I'll never meet that way.

Turning your corpse into a classic knight's iron or steel sword is problematic because your body contains little iron. Cremation and the transformation of ashes into a diamond is possible, but it is not cheap, and diamonds have a strict spiritual nature, it's not an easy stone to wear, and not every person deserved to be turned to a diamond. If you use a sarcophagus and mummification, then you don't have to rot in the ground, but it requires spending some amount of money. If you order a bust of you in bronze with a label, full name and surname, a description of your professions and partly biography and years of life, your spirit and your soul will have a connection with them. But will people visit you often?

in my city there are no decent cemeteries, all the burials are young, there are no burials older than 280 years.

The bones of your corpse can be used as elements of the hilt of a knife, dagger or sword, but honestly, is it really relevant? Is anyone fighting with swords in the 21st century?
And I do not know how the law will treat such a thing, in some countries it is considered the law as a desecration of a corpse.
